Election integrity app allows users to find suspected irregularities, report them to officials

The app may provide more data points and clarity to the debate on voting integrity by mapping where incidents of irregularity have been reported

An election integrity app called VotifyNow allows users to report election irregularities, and it can make those reports available to individuals or organizations, including county officials, journalists, and candidates.

VotifyNow began in 2019, after complaints of election fraud became prevalent in the 2016 presidential and 2018 midterm elections, the founder of VotifyNow, Johnny Vieira, told Just the News on Wednesday. He noted that, at the time, candidates on the left were discussing election fraud, whereas now, conservatives are more concerned about it.

“We absolutely encourage anyone to file reports,” Vieira said.

“Our goal is more transparency,” he added, noting that “with all the craziness with elections, this will help build confidence. With transparency comes confidence in the system.”

He explained that he has been an entrepreneur since he was a teenager but was not involved in politics. Vieira created Vieira Business Ventures, which is the entity under which his projects are managed. He said that he funded VotifyNow out of his own pocket and doesn’t take donations.
